PREFACE  TO  1928-29  EDITION. 


WE  have  again  pleasure  in  producing  another  issue 
of  our  hardy  A.nnual.  Nothwithstanding  the  high 
prices  prevalent  (which  we  do  not  proportionately  follow), 
we  have  maintained  the  four  distinct  departments  of  this 
publication,  and  are  pleased  they  are  appreciated. 

Rothesay  is,  of  course,  the  most  prosperous.  We  would 
like  to  see  its  spirit  of  enterprise  spreading  among  the 
rural  districts.  They  have  each  and  all  something  to  be 
proud  of.  These  cannot  be  properly  appreciated  until  bet- 
ter known. 

This  Directory  is  not  only  at  hand  for  reference  at  all 
times  throughout  the  whole  county,  but  it  is  also  ready  for 
reference  in  the  public  libraries  of  Scotland,  England,  Ire- 
land and  Wales,  and  also  in  numerous  business  houses  and 
agencies  in  busy  centres  ;  and  we  are  particularly  anxious 
that  nothing  of  benefit  to  Buteshire  is  omitted,  but  that 
all  interests  have  a  good  show,  and  everything  brought 
thoroughly  up  to  date. 

The  Public  Libraries  as  a  rule  do  not  subscribe  to 
other  than  the  few  large  National  Directories.  The  more 
numerous  and  detailed  District  Directories  would  cost  too 
much.  For  years  we  have  sent,  complimentarily,  copies  of 
ours— which  are  much  appreciated  ;  and  we  are  prepared 
to  increase  this  muraber  by  forwarding  other  free  copies 
to  any  Libraries  be  be  named  by  customers  giving  orders 
to  the  value  of  £1. 

As  our  Advertising  friends  appreciate  the  continued 
distribution  of  their  announcements  facing  the  ordinary 
reading  matter,  we,  with  prompt  receipt  of  orders,  will 
keep  permanent  this  decided  benefit. 

Those  who  wish  Lists  of  Householders  (arranged  in 
Streets  and  Wards)  can  get  that  in  the  Official  Voters'  Roll 
— in  whole  or  in  parts. 

It  will  be  noticed  that  our  Accident  Assurance  coupon 
is  increased  from  £100  to  £250. 

Our  best  thanks  are  again  accorded  to  those  who  have 
in  any  way  helped  us  in  this  compilation.  It  takes  long 
and  careful  vigilance  to  ascertain  and  give  effect  to  the 
-continual  changes. 

HIGGLE  &  CO.,  Printers  and  Publishers 
Rothesay,  July,  1928. 

P.S. — Will  the  many  persons  who  consult  the  Bute  County  Directory 
in  the  Libraries,  Reading  [Rooms,  Banks,  Offices,  Shops,  etc. ,  through- 
out the  County  and  beyond  it,  free  of  charge,  please  remember  that  they 
are  indebted  for  the  privilege  to  our  Subscribers  and  Advertisers.

LONG  LIVE  THE  BUTE  DIRECTORY 

The  Opinions  of  the  Press  and  the  Acknowledgments  of  Libraries 

are  as  complimentary  as  ever.  The  "  Glasgow  Evening  News  "  makes  the  following 
appreciation  of  "  Local  Colour. — The  compilers  of  the  Bute  County  Directory 
have  an  ingenious  method  of  making  up  the  local  colour  and  stimulating  local  pride 
instead  of  filling  up  the  Calendar  with  the  stock  anniversaries,  they  have  put  against 
«ach  date  a  local  happening."  Thus— [Two  events  mentioned].  "  It  is  certainly  an 
idea  that  makes  for  '  atmosphere. '  "

and  business  people  in  this  popular  health  resort  will  be  most  serviceable.      Notwith 
standing  the  greatly  increased   cost  of  production,  the  price  of  two   shillings   has 
been  maintained. 


COUNTY  OF  BUTE. 

THE  COUNTY  OF  BUTE  comprises  the  seven  islands  in  the  Firth  of  Clyde,  viz 
—  Bute,  the  most  populous;  Arran,  the  largest ;  the  Great  and  Little 
Cuisibkaes,  off  the  Ayrsmre  Coast;  Holy  Isle  and  Pladda,  off  Arran;  and  Inch- 
marnook,  off  Bute. 

The  total  Area  of  the  County  (land  and  water,  exclusive  of  tidal  water)  is 
139,658  acres,  of  which  53,510  are  mountain  and  heath  lands  used  for  grazing.  3, 8()6 
acres  are  under  plantations,  and  794  are  covered  with  water  There  are  25,981  acres 
under  all  kinds  of  crops,  bare  fallow  and  grass,  which  is  a  gradual  inroad  on  the 
mountain  heath  and  hitherto  uncultivated  land. 

The  principal  Industries  are  agriculture,  horticulture,  and  fishing  The  islands 
possess  great  and  varied  natural  attractions,  and  are  in  the  forefront  as  holiday  resorts. 

The  Population  of   the  County  (including  its  Burghs  of  Rothusay  and 
Millport)  in  1801  was  11,791 ;  1831,  14151;  1861,  16,331;   1881,  17,657.      In 
1891  it  was  18,248  (8,057  males  and  10,197  females) ;  and  in  1901,  18,786  (8,412 
males  and  10,374  females) — being  an  increase  of  255  in  the  ten  years — 2T  per  cent 
There  were  4,270  inhabited  houses  in  the  islands. 
For  1911,  the  figures  were  as  follows  :— 
Males. 
Arran        -  -  -     2,169 

Bute  (including  Rothesay)         5,081 
Cumbrae   -  -  -         704 

*The  increased  total  issued  in  the  Quarterly  Return  of  the  Registrar- 
General  compared  with  the  returns  lodged  with  the  Sheriff-Clerk, 
may  be  accounted  for  by  the  enumeration  of  the  shipping. 
the  decreases  since  1901  are  as  follows  :  Arran,  209;  Bute,  330  ;  Cumbrae,  62  —  601. 
The  population  at  the  postponed  1921  census  [taken  in  June  instead  of  April]  for  the 
county,  was  33,711  (13,880  males  and  19,831  females)— being  an  increase  of  15,525 

over  1911.

Parish  of  North  Bute. 

^"pHIS  is  the  northern  portion  of  the  island  of  Bute.  Port-Bannatyne,  its  principal 
-*-  village,  is  two  and  a-half  miles  from  Rothesay,  with  which  it  is  connected  by  tram- 
way. Karnes  Castle,  in  the  vicinity,  is  said  to  be  the  oldest  inhabited  castle  in  the 
•sountry,  and  was  the  ancient  seat  of  the  Bannatynes.  The  village  was  named  after 
that  family — two  brothers  of  whom  (John  and  Gilbert) — received  a  charter  from  King 
Robert  the  Bruce,  for  services  rendered  at  Banuockburn. 

At  the  1921  census,  (taken   in  June  instead  of  April)  the  parish  contained  1201 
males  and  1529  females  — total,  2730.

€H4RMoftheHE4THER 

A  SPRIG  of  SCOTS  HEATHER  is  as  lightly  thought  of  at 
xl.  hame  as  a  drink  of  cold  water  (of  which  there  is  more  than 
enough  to  spare),  but  it  is  an  inspiration  and  a  valued  reminder 
of  the  pleasantest  of  memories  to  Scots  and  their  friends  abroad. 

The  exchange  of  national  floral  emblems  will  yet  become  ex- 
ceedingly popular  among  those  who  work  for  human  brotherhood. 

We  produced  Victory  Commemoration  Bookmarks — in  con- 
nection with  the  Armistice,  the  Signing  of  Peace  and  the  succeed- 
ing Joy  Day  Celebrations, — which  were  considered  very  appro- 
priate. 

Remember  Friends  Abroad. 

While  enjoying  holidays  remember  to  gather  sprigs  to  send  to 
friends  abroad,  or  in  response  to  appeals  you  will  see  in  leading 
Scottish  weekly  newspapers. 

We  have  for  years  sent  boxesfull  of  heather  to  friends  and  so- 
cieties abroad.  We  frequently  respond  to  newspaper  appeals,  and 
the  following  is  a  sample  of  the  acknowledgments  received  :, — 

East  London,  C.  P.,  So.  Africa,  18th  Dec. 
Mr  George  Higgie,  22  Bridge  St.,  Rothesay,  Scotland. 

On  behalf  of  the  East  London  Caledonian  Society  I  wish  to  thank  you  for  bein^ 
so  kind  in  responding  to  my  appeal  for  heather,  which  was  sold  on  our  Patron  Saint's 
Day,  and  realised  the  very  handsome  sum  of  £265  5/11,  and  has  been  forwarded  to 
the  fund  for  disabled  Sailors  and  Soldiers  The  heather  was  received  in  first-clas* 
condition,  and  was  much  prized  — Yours  faithfully,        James  Fokbes, 

Convener  of  Heather  Committee. 
It  is  not  only  Scots  abroad  who  enjoy  a  sprig  of  something  that  actually  grew 
at  hame.  The  Glasgow  '  Evening  Times,'  while  the  above  acknowledgment  was  on  the 
ocean,  printed  the  following; — "  Flower  girls  in  Argj'le  Street  are  making  brave  dis- 
play with  the  mimosa,  which  comes  to  us  from  the  Continent  before  the  swallows  or 
even  the  daffodils  dare.  It  is  one  of  the  indications,  after  the  shortest  day,  that 
somewhere  the  sun  is  shining,  and  that  winter  is  waning.  Australians  in  town  are- 
greatly  cheered  by  the  golden  glory,  for  the  mimosa  is  the  wattle  of  their  homeland, 
carrying  with  it  the  same  significance  as  the  heather  to  a  Scot  abroad." 

Colonials  and  others  on  holiday  in  this  country,  have  thanked  us  personally  for 
sending  them  souvenirs  of  Scotland  when  far  away;  and  others  have  reciprocated  by 
sending  preserved  leaves  and  flowers  from  their  distant  lands. 

The  exchange  of  national  floral  emblems  will  yet  become  exceedingly  popular. 
Botanical  Specimens  go  through  the  post  at  letter,  sample  or  parcel  rates.

BOOK-KEEPING. 


"V/TR  HIGGIE'S  CLASSES  FOR  PRACTICAL  INSTRUC- 
JJl-L.  TION"  are  conducted  daring  the  two  Winter  Quarters  -- 
October  till  December  and  January  till  March. 

PEIVATE  TUITION  BY  ARRANGEMENT. 

Shorthand  continues  to  be  taught  with  a  view  to  its  subsequent  useful- 
ness in  Business  and  Professionally. 

In  Typewriting"  special  attention  is  devoted  to  Punctuation  and  Capital- 
isation— a  thorough  knowledge  of  which  is  absolutely  necessary  in  Practical  Printing 
and  cannot  longer  be  neglected  by  those  aspiring  to  be  First-Class  Typists. 

Esp Brant O* — This  wonderful  International  Language  is  already  used  for 
Business  and  Pleasure  in  all  parts  >>f  the  world.  Mr  Higgie  is  in  touch  with  import- 
ant regions  all  over  the  world,  and  regularly  corresponds  with  persons  everywhere 
— -notwithstanding  their  different  national  languages. 

This  auxiliary  language  anticipates  the  happy  time  whan  there  will  he  "  Peace 
on  earth  and  good  will  to  men,"  which  is  coming  yet  in  spite  of  the  present  times  of 
'"  great  tribulation" — caused  by  covetousness,  selfishness,  greed,  and  wanton  hind  ranee 
to  peaceful  re  construction.  The  efficacy  of  the  International  language  in  tracing  miss- 
ing friends  and  miking  new  ones  has  been  and  is  being  repeatedly  evidenced. 

Antieipitiug  the  b  >om  in  International  Trading  after  the  World  War,  experi- 
ments by  means  of  inter-correspondence  in  Esperanto  are  being  made  bybasiness  firms 
throughout  the  world  with  eminently  satisfactory  results.  It  is  not  the  tyrants  but  the 
"meek  who  shall  inherit  the  earth  "'  The  blatant,  self-righteous  and  arrogant  despots 
were  beaten,  but  Righteousness  is  yet  to  be  exalted,  and  fri^htfulness  loathed.  The 
longed-for  League  of  Nations  is  evolving,  when  harmony  and  good-will  shall'yet  reign 
in  spite  of  all  present  discord  an  I  opposition — but  not  without  many  sacrines,  much 
service  and  suffering.  Prosperity  will  n  >t  come  through  desiring  something  for  no- 
thing, but  through  universal  patient  industry  for  the  public  good.

SPELING  REFORM 

■mHlS  IS  NOT  A  NEW  DESIRE  ;  BUT  BESPEAKS 
J-  A  GREATLY  INCREASED  INTEREST  IN  A 
VERY   IMPORTANT  SUBJECT    AT   THE   PRESENT 

TIME.       Under  the  appropriate  heading, 

"A     Wasted      Year," 

there  appeared,  on  Srd  May,  1924,  a  Special  Article  in  the 
Evening  Citizen,  Glasgow,  showing  that  this  is  the  time  lest 
in  the  life  of  every; child  in  Britain  while  acquiring  the  ir- 
regular and  inconsistent  spelling  of  our  language. 

The  Simplified  Spelins  Society  is  promoting  a 
petition  to  present  to  the  Prime  Minister,  calling  for  the 
appointment  of  a  Royal  Commission — including  Scholars, 
Teachers,  Men  of  Letters  and  Men  of  Business — to  consider 
the  whole  question,  and  report. 

Experiments  already  made  by  enthusiasts  have  proved 
eminently  satisfactory,  and  shows  how  much  valuable  time 
will  be  saved  for  other  studies  by  the  removal  of  the  speling 
incubus. 

The  Spelina:  Reformers  include  all  classes  of  the  people, 
and  the  question  is  not  a  party  one. 

The  Simplified  Spelino-  Society  of  Great  Britain,  and 
the  Speling  Reform  Association  of  U.  S.  A.,  have  issued 
the  first  number  of  a  joint  quarterly  journal,  "  Speling." 

Shorthand  could  not  be  written  without  a  Reformed  and  Phonetic  Alphabet-
